This novel straddles the line between YA and NA fiction by depicting some of the uncomfortable realities of teenage life and transition. Don't listen to the prudes-- the explicit content is handled responsibly and advances the story without being gratuitous.
The style and form would be juvenile in the hands of a worse author, but instead they give a unique experience of a story told through vignette and memory.
